The Harsh Reality of Finding Jobs in Germany in 2025


Writing to you right away after what happened.

A recent graduate from the University of Stuttgart, living in Ludwigsburg.

Him and I were just on a call, Reader.

And it was not nice - to say the least.

He looked stressed.

Really stressed.

Why?

Because the clock is ticking.

  • Job Seeker Visa: 18 months.
  • Already Passed: 3 months.


He's applying for jobs—in English.

What happens?

Every reply asks the same question:

"Do you speak German?"

The phone rings.

Immediate German conversation. No English.

And that's the brutal reality.

Language Matters

In Germany, you need German:

  • French in France.
  • English in England.
  • Danish in Denmark.
  • Russian in Russia.


Simple?

Yes.

Obvious?

Absolutely.

Yet, too many overlook it.

A Moment I'll Never Forget

This bright, talented, hardworking student told me:

"I wish I'd learned German earlier. Back in India. When I still had time and no pressure."

Not a joke - probably my tongue has gotten blue by repeating this over and over again: If you want a good chance in Europe's LARGEST economy - simply learn it's national language when you're still home. Please.

It is easy - when you do your homework.

It really is doable.

This why I even offer a 6 month placement guarantee on my jobs placement program on BiG Academy!

Now?

It's a pressure cooker:

  • Stress.
  • Regret.
  • Anxiety.
  • Applications piling up.
  • Rejections piling higher.

Language barriers slamming doors shut, one after another.

It's tough. Unfair. Frustrating. Exhausting.

But most importantly—it's avoidable.

Take Action

If you're planning a future in Germany:

  • Don't wait.
  • Don't procrastinate.
  • Don't gamble with your future.

Start learning German now.

Because when you're already deep into the struggle, calling me for help, the only truth I can offer is:

“You should've started earlier.”

Because you barely get time for this in Germany.

Life gets busy a f.

But right now - you still have time.

In the comfort of your home.

You're in charge of your own reality.

The choice—and the consequences—are yours alone.

Take control. Take action.

P.S.

The absolute best time to start learning German was yesterday.

The next best time?

Right now.

Every day counts.

Don't waste another one.

Every Friday night I try to read a little. So yesterday night, I read a story on my favourite science fiction forum and it was something so deep that I just couldn't stop thinking about. It's the story about the city of Omelas. A city bathed in light.Peaceful. Happy. Thriving.People smile. The streets hum with life. Music, laughter, celebration. From the outside, it’s paradise.A perfect world. But underneath this beautiful city,in a basement no one talks about,there is a child. The child is...

Hallo! Wie geht es dir? Mir geht es gut. Heute schicke ich dir eine E-Mail auf Deutsch – so wie ich es gesagt habe. 😊 Ich war in Indonesien. Es war sehr schön. Die Strände sind schön. Die Natur ist toll. 🌴🌊 Jetzt bin ich wieder in Europa. Das ist auch gut. Der Winter ist vorbei und es regnet nicht mehr. Ich war gestern zuhause. Ich war mit der Familie. Meine Tochter läuft jetzt mit einer Hand. Ich bin sehr glücklich! Sie hält meine Hand und geht. Das ist so süß. 💖 Sie wird so groß. Die Zeit...

I was not planning to send this email. But I had to. Did you see the news, Reader? Here's the direct screenshot from the news article from the newspaper - Frankfurter Rundschau: Yes. This is true. In recent developments, Germany's leading opposition parties, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and its Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CSU), have proposed significant changes to the country's citizenship laws.
